Sorry, for the last hour or so that was me. Wanted to remove a version
and didn't check how many bugs would be changed.

You are still on that mailinglist. We removed the bugmaster gnome org
alias for the bugzilla.gnome.org product and made everyone watch the
bugzilla-maint alias directly.

If you do not want to watch that alias go to Account, Email preferences
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email) and remove it.
